Savage Boss

Savage Boss

It starts with an innocent mistake.
A knock on the wrong man’s door.

She’s here for a bachelorette party.
Standing at my penthouse door. Blindfolded.
An innocent game.

If I were a better man,
I’d tell her she’s on the wrong floor.

But I’m not that man.

I’m the devil mothers warn their daughters about.
And she’s too sweet.
Too untouched to realize she should run.

I keep her blindfolded
while the city glitters beneath us.

She trembles when I whisper in her ear.
Melts when I tell her exactly what I’m going to do to her.

Now I have a problem.
I keep replaying the night long after she’s gone.

She’s under my skin,
and I can’t rip her out.

So I create a position.
A shiny new role in my empire.

And I wait.

She thinks she landed her dream job.
She has no idea t I built it for her.

Poor little birdie.
She doesn’t belong in my twisted world—
but it’s too late now.

She’s mine.
And no one runs from the Pakhan.

Especially not the mother of his child. $0.99 on Kindle.

Vampire Island of Nightfall: A Vampire Romantasy

Vampire Island of Nightfall: A Vampire Romantasy
A luxury yacht. A violent storm. A forbidden island that should not exist.

Mia Kennedy, former ER nurse, never expected her one-month contract on a luxury yacht to strand her in a hidden vampire sanctuary built on danger, strict laws of restraint and secrecy. But their carefully balanced world is unraveling. The island itself feels… alive.

Jude, the island’s Watcher and protector, senses danger the moment Mia arrives — and the dangerous pull between them threatens to shatter every rule keeping Nightfall stable. Jude has spent centuries guarding Nightfall’s fragile balance. By law, he should stay distant from the human healer who threatens everything he’s sworn to protect.

Instead, he wants her.

As forbidden desire ignites and buried secrets surface, Mia discovers that the island itself may be alive — and far more dangerous than the vampires who live on Nightfall.

Welcome to Vampire Island. No one leaves. Ever.

If you love hidden worlds, vampires, fierce protectors, morally gray immortals, found family, forced proximity and romance forged in danger, this series will keep you turning pages deep into the night. This Romantasy is spicy and there is a cliffhanger. $0.99 on Kindle.

Free: 52 Reasons God’s People Love Passionate Sex

52 Reasons God's People Love Passionate Sex
Celebrate Lovemaking Every Week for a Year

The 52 reasons begin with our relationship with God. Then they follow the next three stages of marriage—the honeymoon, family time, and senior love. Each of the stages builds on the previous one to climax in the senior years with the best sex of all.

How can seniors outperform young couples? Simple. Older couples, who have spent a lifetime passionately loving each other, can easily out-orgasm young couples.

Danger Threatens Each Stage of Love

Each stage of love faces its own challenges and danger that can derail couples from enjoying supreme pleasure. Fortunately, God provides warnings along with jumpstarts to help couples get back on track. To help do this, the 52 reasons are organized according to the four areas of sexual learning and growth with a warning about the unique pitfalls each faces:

1. The Christian years revolve around spiritual intimacy to celebrate God’s design and love for husbands and wives. But rather than working to learn God’s plan for the four parts of intimacy, many couples believe myths about the nature of men and women.

2. The honeymoon years strengthen emotional intimacy for lasting love, especially during hard times. Unfortunately, many newly married couples focus on learning techniques while neglecting the power of their attitudes to increase their sexual sensations.

3. The family years make time for sexual intimacy to tune up God’s perpetual motion machine. Although most couples look forward to starting their families, parents can become too mentally and physically tired even for quickies.

4. The senior years provide conclusions for intellectual intimacy to teach God’s wisdom to the young. Sadly, many aged couples don’t know enough about God’s design for sex to reap the benefits themselves, let alone teach anything to anyone.

A Crash Course in Marriage and Sex

The 52 weeks are not about techniques or gimmicks. They emphasize changing your mindset. They promote intellectual, emotional, sexual, and spiritual intimacy.

Turn This Study Into a Treasure Hunt

View exploring the 52 reasons God’s people love passionate sex as a treasure hunt. If you open your heart to God’s love for us and his amazing teaching about intellectual, emotional, sexual, and spiritual love, you’ll discover unfathomable riches in your marriage. And you will bow your knee before a wonderful Creator who designed the way of a man with a maid.

Study Exercises

If you work on one reason and read one outside chapter each week, neither you nor your marriage will be the same by the end of a year. Discussing the 52 reasons with your spouse builds intellectual, emotional, and spiritual intimacy that turns into sexual ecstasy.

As promised, artificial intelligence has taken over seventy percent of the workforce once employed by humans, leaving many struggling.

As the American people fight to survive, they grow weary of watching corrupt government officials put their selfish interests above the will of the people, and demand they be replaced by Damian Malone’s cyborgs. A genius in robotics and genomic testing, Malone has perfected the manufacture of artificially intelligent cyborgs that run ninety-five percent of people’s homes and businesses.

With forty percent of the world’s animal populations facing extinction due to human interference, she welcomes the opportunity offered by President Langdon and Malone to use the vast might of the United States to aid her ambitions, but then a series of events, both home and abroad, change her perspective forever.

The Food Fix

The Food Fix

The Food Fix makes a clear, evidence-based case that carbohydrates — not fat — are driving the epidemic of metabolic disease.

Written by Auckland GP Dr Marcus Hawkins, the book draws on nearly four decades of clinical practice and published research to explain why type 2 diabetes, obesity, fatty liver disease, cardiovascular disease, and several other chronic conditions share a common root in insulin resistance — and why reducing dietary carbohydrate addresses that root directly.

The science is accessible without being simplified. The clinical evidence is substantial: randomised controlled trials, systematic reviews, and real-world audits from New Zealand primary care, including a multi-site study covering a M?ori health provider. Patient stories give the numbers a human face.

A dedicated chapter examines the disproportionate metabolic disease burden on M?ori and Pacific communities through the lens of dietary displacement rather than genetic destiny — drawing on the author’s own published research on pre-European Maori diet.
The book also confronts why clinical guidelines have lagged behind the evidence, and closes with a practical guide to getting started, monitoring progress, and sustaining change.

The Food Fix is for anyone who wants to understand their metabolic health — and do something about it. $9.98 on Kindle.
